Summary:                    Core dump during normal usage of queues
Description: 
The queues server hosts two queues, and the calls are sent to these queues
via SIP. There's a fair amount of DTMF usage in here. autofill set in
queues.conf. One queue transfers the first SIP transferred calls to the
other queue.

And this server was doing its thing when asterisk crashed. All agents
complained that they got "kicked off by the system"

New update:

Since one of the cores was using up close to 95-100% and the rest were
doing peanuts, I made to sure to go by each and every process in htop.

I first killed sendmail, nothing happened.
I then killed syslogd, and then instead of 98% CPU, it fell down to around
63% CPU. 

syslogd was logging all ALLOWED connections through the firewall. But it
still doesn't make sense as to why Asterisk isn't using all the cores!

With bkruse's help yesterday, I even tried setting affinity.. but couldn't
do for all as there were so many asterisk threads.
